As an Illinois and I am watching closely. And what I am seeing is that the Democratic Party rallied voters from neighboring states to canvas for the presidential election. And every progressive group raised the alarm about the last Wisconsin Supreme Court election. Different PACs and other groups reached out for letter writing and postcarding. And yet here and now the local Democratic machine has been silent.
Crickets.
It feels like the people who can help us make a difference in the groups who can help us make a difference have thrown in the towel, just like the universities the law firms, and my senator.
This right here is why impact litigation is so scary. There are justices being bought all over the US and this one is blatant with no one in the public paying attention! The fetal personhood ruling in Alabama could've been avoided with ONE more justice who could've swayed all of those concurrences that sounded sooooo much like dissents into the right path. This is why even Alabama is worth trying to save when we have all these gerrymandering cases, reproductive healthcare cases, and First Amendment cases coming down the pipeline so I'm throwing my hat in here.
As someone with terrible phone anxiety, I love the postcard option and already signed up and sent some out. Just trying to do my small part from California!
I used to live and work in Wisconsin. What Ive seen are rural voters more apt to support MAGA movement. Literally, they will have to hit rock bottom financially to not support Trump & Musk. But, I think there’s a chance they won’t be bought.
